Artwork Appreciation
CHEN Wei-Ming uses unique brushstroke techniques as a metaphor for our disturbed sub-consciousness. Colored Language Image-2 is a series of artwork that represents an attempt to explore the spatial framework and spirituality of abstract paintings. The seven musical notes were used as the creative element to generate varying degrees of colors and opacity. Vertical and horizontal patches and diagonal lines form the integral elements of the composition while flows and drips of paint decorate the canvas. In addition to abstract patches, black brushstrokes are also added to serve as a symbolic analogy of plants, disassembling the two-dimensional patches while serving as a metaphor of the isolation felt by urban residents.
